Fwd: [Ten Premodern Poems by Women] Week 2 of Ten Premodern Poems by Women now live!

Week 2 of Ten Premodern Poems by Women is now live, and you can visit it by clicking here or going to https://lagunita.stanford.edu and selecting the course.

Welcome to the second week of our online course!  Your comments, discussion and insight have all helped with the understanding of our first poem, Anne Bradstreet's "The Author to Her Book". This week's poem is a text that will also benefit  from knowing its context, but in a different way. "Epitaph" is not long.  Just 22 lines. Katherine Philips, its author, was a young English woman, who married at 16, died at the age of 33 and in this poem wrote one of the loveliest and darkest elegies of the 17th century.  The poem here was written for her little son Hector who lived for just forty days. The opening few lines are a musical masterpiece – a cadence that mixes melody and pain and anger in perfect proportion. What makes this lament powerful - and also unusual - is that Katherine Philip's life crossed over into some of the most important and tumultuous events of English history. Philips was a Royalist. She was at the impressionable age of 18 when her king, Charles I, was executed and beheaded for treason in the English Civil War. But her subject is not his death. It is a far more private sorrow. This counterpoint between a public event and a personal grief highlights Philip's achievement in this poem, which might otherwise be easy to overlook: the way in which a private poetic voice can still speak to us across the centuries, with power and authority, when so much of the public world has faded from view.

Thank you Donna, I've completed more than ten online college classes this year.

Thank you, Donna. Another certificate came in just as I had completed the quiz questions at 100% for the course on Australian Literature- thirty two correct out of thirty two asked. It was eighty two questions correct out of eighty two questions asked for three courses. The class before that, with a low graded essay still came in with a certificate of distinction by a percent or two, at 71 questions out of 72- the total of quiz questions for the last four completed certificate courses makes 153 questions answered correct out of 154, from four different countries.
The certificate for Scandinavian Film and Television was sent twice, once a year ago, and this month, after having completed the course twice.

This year has had:

Scandinavian Film University of Copenhagen completed twice

Warhol Edinburgh
Introduction to Philosophy Edinburgh
Kierkegaard. Copenhagen with distinction
Plato Singapore with distinction
Modern Poerty Pennsylvania
Hollywood Film Wesleyan with 100% score

During that time two certificates were sent from Harvard University for American Poetry, the fourth class in progress at the moment which will make three out of four and added to that can be more than three courses from England on Future Learn, including Univeristies of Leicester, Warwick and Sheffield.

Thank you, Donna. I completed more than ten online classes.

My certificate for the online class in Film from Wesleyean University was sent today reading 100%. It is a statement of achievement and usually classes offer achievement with distinction for anything higher than 90%, whereas this professor saw it just quizzes to test if you were paying attention. And another certificate arrived from the University of Denmark for Scandinavian film and Television. It is a course I've completed twice. A year ago, it was my first class and the writing was on Ordet, a film by Carl Dreyer and the certificate was an 87%. I now have seven certificates for the six different courses, but with two or three now being processed. This year the essay, graded by fellow student, was on Scandinavian Television, which I don't watch as opposed to Scandinavian Film, which I happen to enjoy; the grade for the same course came in lower the second time a year laager, but the lectures series on Hollywood film from Wesleyean ended with the perfect completetion. During that year, the course in Kierkegaard from the University of Denmark was a certificate of distinction at 91.5%. Add to these seven certificates, back up classes from England, not on Coursera, but on Future Learn. Two certificates have been sent for courses completed from Harvard, so I'll be looking for an improvement this year- more than Ten Online Classes from all of the world during my first year. I've correctly answered the last 74 questions from three countries, before that there may have been a perfect test from a fourth and fifth country, but the essays are peer graded. Scott Lord Scott Lord Written next morning after making love: News Flash: We again have a Hawk on the nineteenth floor during the day, and a wild rabbit in the backyard at night- we should name the rabbit Mascot. The first one we saw was at the grave of Longfellow and Amy Lowell, the second one was at the Longfellow House, a national park also, and the third was in the courtyard where I have a cigarette at night.
